"As an experience Half-Minute Hero: Super Mega Neo Climax is second to none. Once the appropriate mindset has been put in place, the player soon adapts to the frenetic pace, the gentle humour and the wholly unique take on a tired genre. It’s a sheer delight, even at full speed. "
Welcome back to Xbox One UK's regular reflection; where we take a look at the list of Xbox 360 titles that became backwards compatible in the last month, and try to point out a couple of highlights. This month had one clear winner of course.
EDGE: "The only long-winded thing about Half-Minute Hero: Super Mega Neo Climax Ultimate Boy is its name. It might look like an RPG, it might affectionately mock RPGs, but what we really have here is a bright, brisk puzzler dressed up in a delightfully cheap and tacky fancy dress RPG costume. It’s glib, achingly net-savvy in its humour and entirely irreverent in its tone. I think it’s one of the most sophisticated parodies that games have seen."
Destructoid: "Check out this mysterious image (get a better look in our gallery) that magically appeared before me early this morning. Some of the information, like a date of September 27, is clear. But the rest? Well, I had to look at it for awhile."
